The second amendment gives us the right to bear arms not to bully with them.

At recent “townhall meetings” in AZ and NH, states where it is legal to carry a loaded firearm in public, local dimwits have been showing up to these political events bearing small sidearms. In two instances, these included CAR-15 assault rifles, locked and loaded.

Since assault rifles are not intended for deer or duck hunting, but intended for use on human targets, I can only deduce from this that said dimwits were bearing arms in an attempt to intimidate anyone who disagrees with them. Ostensibly to assert their by-god Constitutional rights to free speech and to bear arms (let my friend Mr. Blammo do the talking), the real reasoning here, if such a term could be used in reference to such moronic behavior, is to threaten anyone with political views that differ from theirs.

It is obvious to see that the potential for mayhem here is too great to be ignored. If gun owners show the remarkable lack of common sense to go to a political rally armed, then gun-control advocates (of which I am not one) have more “ammunition” in the debate to further their cause. In short, these same pro 2nd amendment jokers, through their obvious lack of judgment skills, are going to inspire congress to pass the very gun control laws that are so onerous to maintenance of liberty in America.

Guns are not for threatening violence, they are tools intended to implement violence. To any reasonable gun owner, they are tools to be kept in reserve and to only be displayed in times of great national distress; times where there is a clear and present danger to our freedoms. No matter how much the agenda-driven media blows the health care debate out of proportion, this is not the case in America right now.

I would like to make it very clear right now that I am not intimidated by these morons, either armed with words or with bullets. I think I am far from alone in feeling this way, and posers with assault rifles should take note that once visual intimidation fails, they might have to actually shoot somebody. I doubt these people will have the stomach for it.

It is only to be hoped that these gun-totin’ “patriots” took the precaution of having a gunsmith file down the front sight tip of their toys, so that when those of us with little tolerance for this nonsense shove them up their asses, it won’t hurt as much.
